Does the Lemmy API have push API endpoints, or only pull? (midwest.social)

Is there any way to just like open a websocket and get notified of e.g. new posts/comments/etc, or is the only way to do that by polling?

I tried looking at the API docs, but didn't see anything about it

Nothing like that built-in, but look for the lemmy webhooks software in this comm and you'll find a tool which can provide this functionality for you.
